Jones changes speech and praises Sonnen: “He’s decent when he’s not promoting fights”

the american Jon Jones was once a great critic of Chael Sonnen, where he already stated that the controversial loudmouth didn't deserve the chance to fight for the light heavyweight belt, but the light heavyweight title holder seems to have changed his opinion about his next rival.

The fighters, who have already started recording the 17th season of TUF, spent six weeks together during the Ultimate reality show, and it seems that Chael seems to have improved her image in front of the champion.

“I think I have a little more respect for Chael Sonnen after having spent six weeks with him. He's not as bad of a character as I thought. He’s a pretty decent person when he’s not trying to promote a fight,” revealed Jones, in an interview with UFC Tonight.
